Combination Circuit Diagram (resistor network simplification)

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the process of simplifying a resistor network in a combination circuit diagram, with the aim of redrawing it until it appears as a series circuit. The context includes homework help and technical clarification regarding circuit diagrams.

Discussion Character

  • Homework-related, Technical explanation

Main Points Raised

  • One participant seeks guidance on how to simplify a combination circuit diagram to achieve a series configuration.
  • Another participant confirms that the initial approach is on the right track but notes that some images are unclear.
  • A question is raised regarding the notation used for denoting parallel equivalent resistances, indicating a need for clarification on the symbols used in the diagrams.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

There is some agreement that the participant is on the right track, but uncertainty remains due to the clarity of the images and the notation used. The discussion does not reach a consensus on the correctness of the diagrams presented.

Contextual Notes

The discussion highlights limitations related to the clarity of the images provided and the notation used, which may affect the understanding of the circuit simplification process.

How do I accomplish this? The goal is to redraw the diagram of the ciruit shown below, until it becomes series in the end.

Given:
PwFIRRc.jpg

Here’s what I did:
Diagram 1

3

*I apologize for flipped images. iPhone camera is tricky.

Is this correct? If not, why?

Yes.

This problem belongs to our homework help section. Since this is your first post, I believe some mentor will move this thread for you to the HH forum. Please post such questions in the HH forum next time onwards.

Welcome to PF!:smile:

Thanks
 
As far as "are you correct?"... Well the last few images are blurry. It looks like you started on the right track, though.
What notation are you using to denote parallel equivalent resistances?
All I can really make out is R with a bunch of numbers separated by dots.
